Labels let you tag groups of objects for easier searching and filtering. Use labels to mark objects with common characteristics (e.g., “PCI”, “Owned”, “Production”).
You can filter views and queries based on labels. For example, label PCI-scoped systems to quickly identify attack paths from non-PCI to PCI environments.
Unlike zones, BloodHound does not use labels in risk analysis—they’re designed to help you organize and query your data.
